Indeed there isn't an airport in Freetown from what I can find nearest on 80km away in Stella Maris. However Freeport has an international airport.

There was a 6 hour stop in Freeport in the logs that was never mentioned in the official account, and Mansergh apparently claims not to remember that stop.

What doesn't appear to have been was a quick visit to another island in the Bahamas. The tribunal's counsel seems to thinks there was some significance to the six hour stop-over on a different island in the Bahamas.
